WHY WAIT TO SEE YOUR GP?
Rather than waiting for a doctor's appointment, access to this emergency eye care is available to everyone aged 5 and over who is registered with a GP in Northern Ireland.
NI PEARS appointments are available during our normal working hours, and you will be seen within 48 hours. We will, however, endeavor to see you on the day if the optometrist's clinic allows.
Please be advised, if you do not qualify for an emergency NI PEARS assessment, a private fee will apply depending on your condition.
